Abstract (en)
[origin: WO0156459A1] A tethered interconnection assembly (50) supplies an antimicrobial fluid to interior passages of an endoscope during a microbial decontamination cycle. The tethered connection assembly includes tube assemblies (56) with fittings (60, 62, 64) which are uniquely configured for interconnection with an appropriate one of a high pressure port (28), a low pressure port (28), and optionally a leak detector port (36). Fittings (74) at the other end of the tube assemblies are configured for interconnection with appropriate corresponding ports of the endoscope. The tube assemblies (56) are interconnected by a tether (52) to which plurality of plugs (58) for plugging appropriate ports of the endoscope are also connected. A tag (54) identifies the model(s) of endoscope that the tethered connection assembly is to be used with and provides a diagram showing the proper interconnection pattern.
